== Hierarchy Information ==
+
The Church of Humanity traces its roots to noble orders of knighthood and the laws of ancient monarchies.  It espouses the principles of order, integrity, obedience, and loyalty as a result of these historical ties.  Those who take the Oath of Faith, the Church's full members, are expected to help guide and teach others in the beliefs of Holy Church.  In this way, we build a strong foundation of community and kinship under the Divine's loving gaze.
  
The Church of Humanity is based on wisdom and knowledge with a democratic influence. Guiding and teaching others in paths of wisdom and knowledge, hereby creating a strong social foundation.  
+
Holy Church's ranking is divided between Adherents, Oathsworn (full members who are themselves divided between tithers, Templars, and Clerics), and the Ecclesiarchy.
  
A higher rank must be both earned and obtained. One can only earn membership by taking the oath<br>
+
Most Adherent ranks are attained through devotion and tithingIt is through this stage in one's spiritual life that followers are to seek out the Church's teachings and doctrines Adherents are also expected during this time to consider their future within Holy Church, their path as one of the Oathsworn.
One can only earn ranks higher then 'Graduate' by taking the test, which can only be taken after at least a month of service to the Church. <br>
 
One can only obtain an Elder rank by popular vote amongst the Elders, most times only in case of a vacant position (or a near vacant position). <br> <br>
 
Most ranks can be obtained by paying a joining fee. However, each higher rank will cost you more each month. (Be warned! One can only leave the church when ''not'' in debt!). If you desire a rank in which you don't have to donate monthly, please state so, so an Elder can adjust your rank accordingly. <br>
 
  
Demotions do not occur except for serious offenses, and can only be done through majority vote of all Elders (Prophet, Master Priest, Councilors and Elder Priests). Unless the person regarded asks for a demotion (For instance, when the person regarding desires to have a lower monthly donation.)
+
When an Adherent is ready to become a full member of the Faith they must contact the Ecclesiarchy and swear the Oath of Faith, pledging to uphold the Code of Chivlary, the Twelve Tenets, and the doctrines of Holy Church.
 +
<parsed for rewording>

 +
The lowering of rank is uncommon unless requested from the Oathsworn or even Adherents who can no longer afford certain tithes.  Exceptions include clerics who violate proscriptions (such as using the Faith to seize lands from landed lords), Knights Templar who disobey or refuse orders from their officers, or any who practice some form of heresy. In the latter case, punishment is only carried out by order of the Ecclesiarchy.  Should one truly turn their back on the Tenets of Holy Church, they may be declared an apostate.

The Church of Humanity traces its roots to noble orders of knighthood and the laws of ancient monarchies. It espouses the principles of order, integrity, obedience, and loyalty as a result of these historical ties. Those who take the Oath of Faith, the Church's full members, are expected to help guide and teach others in the beliefs of Holy Church. In this way, we build a strong foundation of community and kinship under the Divine's loving gaze.

Holy Church's ranking is divided between Adherents, Oathsworn (full members who are themselves divided between tithers, Templars, and Clerics), and the Ecclesiarchy.

Most Adherent ranks are attained through devotion and tithing. It is through this stage in one's spiritual life that followers are to seek out the Church's teachings and doctrines Adherents are also expected during this time to consider their future within Holy Church, their path as one of the Oathsworn.

When an Adherent is ready to become a full member of the Faith they must contact the Ecclesiarchy and swear the Oath of Faith, pledging to uphold the Code of Chivlary, the Twelve Tenets, and the doctrines of Holy Church. <parsed for rewording>

The lowering of rank is uncommon unless requested from the Oathsworn or even Adherents who can no longer afford certain tithes. Exceptions include clerics who violate proscriptions (such as using the Faith to seize lands from landed lords), Knights Templar who disobey or refuse orders from their officers, or any who practice some form of heresy.
